2 Thessalonians 3:1 Douay-Rheims

For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of God may run, and may be glorified, even as among you;

Clement of Alexandria

c. A.D. 150–215 Patristic

"Many rod-bearers there are, but few Bacchi," according to Plato. "For many are called, but few chosen." "Knowledge is not in all," says the apostle. "And pray that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith." ...For the many demand demonstration as a pledge of truth, not satisfied with the bare salvation by faith.
